Nice Essay. I couldn't have been so compressed. I'm so angry and sad at the same time, I would have written until my fingers bled. Thanks for expressing what many of us are thinking.

Bob, I was at home today, watching this unfold on Fox. Linda Vester was totally stunned. At least on Fox, they don't expect their anchors to remain emotionless when something really horrid happens.

When I called the Capitol, it seems the fla dem senator is the easiest one to get by phone so I talked to Sen. Nelson's office. (he's the one who went up in the space shuttle).

His staffer directed me to c-span but he'd already finished speaking. We have pubbie congressman in DC but our Senators (I think) are all dems. The staffer said that Nelson felt exactly the way I did. I kind of said part of the Pledge to the staffer; including "indivisible".

The bottom line is that when I want to COMPLAIN, I am very bi-partisan. But, besides complaining and signing Petitions re: the Pledge how can we push those Dubya Judges through the Senate? WORK TO GET THE VOTE OUT FOR PUBBIES IN THE SENATE AND THE HOUSE?

Someone is passing a personal greeting from me to Governor Jeb tomorrow at an educational conference. Jeb knows what good Americans we are trying to be here at FR. I don't think that Jeb would ever stand for the Pledge being denied Florida's students. Regards.
